Before and after the intervention phase, questionnaires on self-compassion, eating, dieting, health behavior, stress, and emotion regulation were completed and body weight was determined. Future studies should replicate these findings outside of the COVID-19 crisis and test the effect of self-compassion in samples with eating disorders or weight problems. Although a review showed beneficial effects of SC on eating behavior, body image, and weight loss (Rahimi-Ardabili et al., 2018) , previous studies suffered from several limitations like failing to include a control group (Pinto-Gouveia et al., 2019) , combining SC with other helpful components like mindfulness, yoga, and psychoeducation, or only assessing short-term effects. In this study, participant who wanted to lose weight or change their eating behavior received a 2-week, smartphonebased self-compassion intervention.	./cache/cord-326971-jekqhslx.txt	./txt/cord-326971-jekqhslx.txt
